Abstract (en)

An electrical terminal (100) includes a base portion (102) having a base portion outer surface (104), a base portion inner surface (106), and two securing tabs (108) extending from an edge of the base portion (102). The electrical terminal (100) also an attachment portion (110) having an attachment portion outer surface (112) an attachment portion inner surface (114). The base portion inner surface (106) is proximate the attachment portion inner surface (114) and wherein the two securing tabs (108) overlay the attachment portion outer surface (112). The electrical terminal (100) may be especially well suited for making an electrical connection to components disposed on a glass surface. A method for forming such a terminal (100) is also presented.
